Probably you're running Synaptic on Wayland with root permission.
Please restart your session without Wayland, or run Synaptic without
root permission
My guess is that
env | grep DISPLAY
does not contain WAYLAND_DISPLAY in your case, so the issue is
completely unrelated to wayland. As I wrote in another message, the
~/.Xauthority file is likely either not owned by your user or it is
corrupted.
